NAME
       prospector - static Python code analyzer


SYNOPSIS
       $ prospector

       $ prospector <path/to/project>

       $ prospector <path/to/module.py path/to/another/module.py>


DESCRIPTION
       Prospector  analyzes  Python  source  files  and puts out information about coding errors,
       potential problems, convention  violation  and  unnecessary  complexity.  It  provides  an
       uniform and flexible interface to a number of tools for static Python code checking.

       By default, Prospector uses the following tools: Dodgy, McCabe (Flake8 extension), Pep257,
       Pep8 (supplemented  by  Pep8-naming,  Flake8  extension),  a  build-in  profile-validator,
       Pyflakes,  and  Pylint.  It auto detects libraries a project uses, to which it could adapt
       (currently, Celery, Django and Flask are supported  individually).  Additionally,  Vulture
       and Pyroma could be employed for testing.

       Prospector could be adjusted very detailed to personal coding styles through profiles. For
       comprehensive      information      on      this      application,       please       see:
       /usr/share/doc/prospector/html/index.html.
